Suicide bombers struck two mosques in Afghanistan during Friday prayers, a Shiite mosque in Kabul and a Sunni mosque in western Ghor province, killing at least 89 people at the end of a particularly deadly week for the troubled nation. In a separate incident, a suicide bomber killed 15 Afghan army trainees as they were leaving their base in Kabul yesterday. The Afghan president issued a statement condemning both attacks and saying that country's security forces would step up the fight to "eliminate the terrorists who target Afghans of all religions and tribes."

The new attacks bring to over 200 the number of people killed in bomb attacks across the country this week. Pic/AP
